Food Porn: Duck Addition

Sir Paddleton, our roast duck

I made this duck because it was on sale & I had never made a duck before. It was a great challenge, and it turned out friggin delicious. HOWEVER, we are only two people, and you can only eat the same meal over & over without getting burned out. And so our duck became a few other things:

Pho inspired soup

A simple yet tasty broth, some rice vermicelli, spaghetti squash & a variety of vegetables made this pho-inspired duck soup an absolute delight.

Pate stuffed Jalepenos

Using our ninja to pate the meat with a variety of spices & goat cheese, these stuffed jalapenos seemed promising. The Jalapeños themselves, however, were entirely too spicy for normal human consumption. And so we reimagined them into these bad boys:

quesadillas of glory

The innards

By then our duck was more or less spent, but we had enough of that and the extra spaghetti squash to throw together a casserole.

If you are a household of one or two, how do you keep from getting worn out on the same old left overs?
